I’ve had quite a few people ask me what I paint on, so here’s a little behind the scenes peek! ✨🎨 This piece lives in my sketchbook, which is filled with experiments, colour play, and creative exploration. The paper is professional-grade watercolour paper - 300gsm - for that beautiful texture and flow.

It’s where I test out ideas, but sometimes… I paint something I love and then wish it wasn’t stuck in a book forever! If only I could frame or sell it - some pages deserve a gallery wall. 🤷‍♀️

Do you ever create something then wish it had a different home?

Big thank you to Andrew Cuff for the reference photo.

Feels so good to finally finish this one! I started it over 15 years ago when I was a new Mum. When I got back to it the sizing had deteriorated so I had to finish with acrylic. Pretty happy with the results😀

Didn’t realise there’s all this cool street art in Toowoomba! I’m here for a few days enjoying the gardens (and working of course!)
